@guyfriday I'd echo repairing permissions and doing a backup. Also check your startup items. Seems unlikely but it might just be grinding to a halt because you have half your applications running on boot. @TRA is right that more RAM is never a bad plan and to check your existing memory, but I'd only suggest a clean install as a last resort. If you do need to do one you can restore your applications and user files from the backup which saves a lot of bother.
I'd never heard of ONYX either actually so will look into that.
